STN: Need for Speed Rivals Preview

Coming hot off the tail of Need for Speed: Most Wanted, a reboot of one of the most famous Need for Speed titles to date, Rivals feels like a step in the right direction, one that didn’t come from the well-executed, but safe, Most Wanted. Sure, there’s still alot of mechanics that are being pulled from Hot Pursuit, but the evolution of the idea between cops and racers as rivals wraps the series’ pursuits in an interesting context that breathes new life into the series.
